I always look forward to hearing what Richard Ray Farrell is gonna do next. Over the years we've become friends. I've always been more than highly impressed with his guitar playing, down home acoustic at times, lightning strike electric at others. His singing is a cross between nothing you've ever heard before and something you want to hear more of. His song writing is as down home and honest as Mississippi mud. If you ain't heard this young man, it's about time you did. He's the real deal - all blues all the time. Check out "Starting Over Again," if you doubt my word. Funky as it gets, and straight from the heart. "Fallin' Rain." Come on. This is the real stuff. Richard Ray Farrell. He's one in a million. I feel proud to be his friend.
